The 4th annual NYC BBQ Cookoff is set to take place this Saturday, April 11, from noon to 4pm at Historic Richmond Town. The competition is officially sanctioned by the International Kansas City Barbecue Society.

Bring your apetites! There will be plenty of ribs, brisket, pulled pork, and chicken. Cooks will be competing for cash prizes totaling $6,900. Ed Wiseman, executive director of Historic Richmond Town, stated that over 4,000 guests showed up last year to grab a few bites. "Here's my tip:" he said, "Join us early so you can sample as many top cooks as you can."

Advance tickets are $10 for adults, as opposed to $12 on the day of the event. Kids age 12 and under are $5. Call 718-351-1611 for more information.
